The wind swept her long brown hair around her body. The river was almost imperceptible before her. Her hands gripped the hard cold railing beneath it. Her body trembled from the chill of the wind on this relatively warm night. But she took no real notice. She stood there contemplating. Would anyone miss her if she did it? Would anyone care if she died? Or would they be relived that the resident town freak had finally died? Would her father miss her? Or would he like all the rest and fell sore relief? She wished she knew but her power could never grant her that.
"He'll miss you. And I will miss you." A chiming bell like voice said behind her. She was surprised but not fearful of this sudden presence behind her. "And how do you know?" she asked the voice somberly. "I've seen it love." Was all that was offered to her. Love? No one had ever used that connotation in connection with her before. "Who are you?" she asked the voice wearily, wondering if this was all some cruel prank in these last moments that was her life. "I'm your destiny and you are mine" the voice told her calmly.
A cold hand gripped her shoulder suddenly. But she did not respond to it physically. Instead she had one last question to ask before all her decisions could be made. "Would you take me away from all this, could you save me?" "Yes" the voice answered firmly. She turned around. Behind her stood a girl. A small girl, a pixie. She had short black hair, and the most golden eyes she had ever seen. In short the girl was beautiful. "I hope you can save me. The next time I won't say yes." She told the girl. The girl didn't even blink. "Of course I'm here to save you silly girl. I would never let my destiny go quite so easily." The girl responded with an adorable smirk.
She nodded to her. The girl took her hand and led her to a car that was parked at the end of the bridge. It looked expensive but she hardly cared. She climbed into the passenger's side and buckled herself in tightly. The pixie was already in the driver's seat sans buckle, staring at her. She thrust her hand to the other girl. " By the way, I'm Bella." She told her. "I know. My name is Alice." And with that they drove off into the darkness.
